it's not bad for a first. the image quality is just a little low but the blend came out nice.

Ooh! That's an awesome skin for a first! The blending came out really cool, but if you had used images with better quality, or put the better quality images on top, it would've been better. ^^

The blend is good, but the image is bad quality. good job for a first skin though.

-I was never really a fan of just random image blending, it always ends up looks really busy with no specific point of focus, also it looks like you got some of the pictures from in-game screen caps? Maybe you just just focus on the CG
-The gray background of your entrie headers (the dates) cuts into the word "blog"
-THe font, oh man the font. There is not enough margin between each line. Everything is way too compressed and it's a chore just to read a paragraph. Plus it clashes with the cursive font of "blog" and "content"

that's awesome for a first skin! mines was really ugly..eww.. don't wanna think about it. any ways, pretty good blend, but too many pics. pic quality is low. scriptina is, how do you say? played out? terminal is an ok font. looks good, but is hard to read when its in a big block of words. also, on the bottom right side of the banner, you can see the picture edge. might wanna change that. for a first layout i give u an 9/10.
